There is genocide occurring in Sudan at this very moment - we are not invading Sudan and liberating its people. It boils down to an interest in oil - we have not invaded Sudan because we have little motivation to do so. More of the September 11th hijackers were Saudi than anything else, but we have not invaded Saudi Arabia because we are on friendly oil-receiving terms with it's government. It's not some crazy conspiracy theory; it's just the cold hard truth. I'm sure many leaders would love to pull all of out troops out of all of the Middle East, close our borders and call it a day, but we would run into an energy crisis of mass proportions.

Why do people just post what they are thinking? Without thinking.
